Product: Crosman 0290 Red Dot Sight
Review entered on 2012-10-23 22:43:43Things I liked:Not much to like, but it is cheap.
Things I would have changed:Make it out of metal, find a way to fix loose adjustment screws.
What others should know:This thing doesn't work very well on springers - I mounted it on a Browning 800 express springer pistol and can't get it to stay put. It is also cocked a bit when mounted (probably because of over-tightening) and looks bad. You get what you pay for in this case and this thing is pretty cheap!
Product: Crosman 0290 Red Dot Sight
Review entered on 2012-11-27 20:10:49Things I liked:Only the price.
Things I would have changed:More metal, better clamping, windage screws that stay put.
What others should know:This is a cheap imitation of a red dot sight. No matter how hard I clamped things down it would not stay in position on a Browning 800 express. It is cheap and a decent value for the money spent, but really is a waste of time and effort. Spend 2 or 3 times as much and get something decent.
Product: Ace Case 21" Scoped Pistol Case
Review entered on 2012-12-05 01:53:19Things I liked:Just the right size for large magnum springer pistols like the Browning 800 express.
Things I would have changed:Ditch one of the internal pouches, not enough room for much other than the large magnum springer pistol and scope.
Product: AirForce Condor Bounty Hunter Air Rifle, Spin-Loc
Review entered on 2012-12-13 16:28:55Things I liked:I've got the 0.25 caliber model and this thing has some POWER! The flash suppressor is cool, but likely does nothing for the performance of this air gun. Lots of rail space for mounting stuff.
Things I would have changed:Probably eliminate this bundle as it is not an AirForce product and probably generates more confusion than it is worth. The skeleton tailstock piece is really the weak link here. It doesn't fit very well with the current 2012 tanks and apparently doesn't fit at all with the new spinlock tanks. Maybe it should be swapped for the AifForce thumbhole accessory rail? The manual is pretty cheesy, especially compared with the beautiful, glossy, product catalog. The DVD that comes with it is good but could probably stand some updates.
What others should know:First, know that this "Bounty Hunter" is a PA package and is comprised of eye-candy components added to the condor frame. It is identical in function to the base condor. This airgun (in 0.25 at least) is loud, real loud, in the same territory as 0.22 rimfire. You'll need very tall rings and/or the appropriate riser rail to mount a scope and actually be able to look through it. The skeleton tailstock is nicely made and all but it is purely for looks. Interesting that PA has it listed as an accessory that doesn't fit current AirForce rifles, but they still include it in this package. It makes removing the tank for filling a bit more of a hassle as well. I'm going to submit a couple pics I took that illustrate the only way I could get the tailstock to mount on the rifle. Note that you loose any ability to use the new butt plate's adjustability for length of pull. Buy the base condor and add the accessories you want and don't waste time with the Bounty Hunter PA bundle.
Product: Centerpoint Quick Release Bipod
Review entered on 2012-12-23 17:24:06Things I liked:Lightweight, very portable and rigid enough for a stable mount.
Things I would have changed:Adding 6-12 inches of height adjustability would make this thing really cool.
